ASL (American Sign Language) Viewing Areas
Guests utilizing ASL (American Sign Language) services should visit the Access Center upon arrival to receive an ASL wristband.
How do I obtain an ASL wristband?
Upon arriving at the Access Center, please let a member of the accessibility team know that you are requesting ASL accommodations. An ASL team member will assist you with a registration process to sign up for your requested accommodation. This registration process requires the use of American Sign Language.
Once the process is completed, you may be issued an ASL wristband, which allows access to designated ASL viewing areas during interpreted performances.
ASL wristbands are valid for the entire Festival weekend. Please do not remove your wristband during the event. If your wristband becomes damaged or is removed, visit the Access Center for assistance.
